Enjoy a cold tropical drink prepared and served to you by our bilingual staff. Gaze off the bow with a cold tropical drink prepared and served by our bilingual staff as you scan the seas for dolphins, sea turtles, flying fish or even a breaching whale. Stop in a tranquil bay, drop anchor and frolic in the blue Pacific. Kayak through sea caves, float on a raft, snorkel in the bay or run down the deserted white sand beach while the ever helpful crew prepares a feast of fruit, chips, dips, ceviche and salad.

After frolicking in the secluded bay, the crew hoists the sails and the Marlin Del Rey skims quietly across the surface of the pacific passing Playa Flamingo, Playa Conchal, Bahia Amore, Bahia de Las Pirates, Playa Grande and finally Tamarindo Beach. Feel the wind in your hair and the sun on your face as you prepare to witness one of the great joys of Costa Rica….an enchanting Tamarindo sunset.

Our tours include a Tamarindo snorkel adventure, kayaking, diving, fishing or just plain relaxing with an open bar and ample snacks.

OTHER TOURS AVAILABLE
JUNGLE BOAT SAFARI:
Estuaries are a unique ecosystem where salt water and fresh water are mixed by the tides. Many species of birds, wildlife and plant life depend on these areas. The mangroves growing along the estuary are especially significant environmentally, since they serve as filters for polluted water flowing from the rivers out into the ocean. The Tamarindo Wildlife Refuge protects a large estuary of mangrove forest and tropical dry forest covering an area of almost 1,000 acres. The boat trip into the estuary offers an opportunity to observe rare and abundant wildlife, including dozens of tropical bird species and three species of monkeys, caiman and crocodiles while learning about the unique ecosystem of the mangrove forest.
